Google has just announced the release of the first developer preview for Android P mobile operating system, as the company is looking for feedback from developers who can use the official Android emulator, as well as images for Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, and Pixel 2XL devices for testing

Google will take into account comments from developers before finalizing the APIs and features. That won’t be the only preview however, as the company plans to release other developer previews planned before the stable release at the end of the year, and Google aims to reveal more at Google I/O 2018 next week.

Some of the interesting changes and new features found in Android P so far:

Security and privacy improvements – More consistent UI for fingerprint authentication, defaults for Network Security Configuration to block all cleartext (unencrypted HTTP) traffic, access restriction to mic, camera, and all SensorManager sensors from apps that are idle.

ART performance – reductions up to 11% of DEX file leading to faster load times.
